Common Mode Rejection
The Common to Common test circuit, in Figure 4 below, is the method used to measure Common
Mode Rejection. This parameter is especially important in meeting FCC/VDE emission testing.
Common mode currents on the transmission cable are a major source of EMI emissions.
To perform the Common Mode Rejection test:
1. The equipment is first calibrated with a direct connection to a 50
cable between the input
and output of the waveform analyzer. Conduct a thru calibration.
2. The test fixture is then connected between the input and the output. Insert the device under
test in the fixture.
3. The signal is then input into pins 4, 5, 6, and 7 which are shorted. Measure the output unbal-
ance through R3 and R4. These resistors shoud be matched to within ±0.1%.
4. The test is repeated with pins 1, 2, and 3 shorted and connected to the input. The output
imbalance is measured through R1 and R2 which are also matched to ±0.1%.
